Meet Sadie Edwards, heart failure patient, and the NYM doctor who treats her

The Institute for Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery is the Hospital's program for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of all types of heart disease. The heart surgery team at the New York Methodist-Cornell Heart Center comes from the world-renowned Weill Cornell Medical Center at New York-Presbyterian Hospital.

The Institute maintains a roster of Hospital-based and private practice cardiologists who are specially trained in the evaluation, treatment, and prevention of heart disease. Non-invasive cardiologists provide expertise in the detection and medical treatment of heart disease. Interventional cardiologists are skilled in procedures that restore blood flow to the heart. Electrophysiologists specialize in evaluating and treating patients with complex heart rhythm disorders. 

Referrals to these specialists or to cardiac programs and services available at the Hospital can be made through a patient’s primary care physician or can be requested through the Institute's doctor referral service by calling 1.866.84.HEART.
